Two steamers proceeded down the bay early
in the morning to meet the Great Eastern, and
their disappollitment was very great. About

the bay, and it was again reported that the
big ship had arrived. The tiring was °ma

There are no signs of the Great Eastern yet,

Spurious and Genuine Greenbacks.
On inquiry at the United States Treasurer's
office, to-day, it was ascertained that of the

not more than from one and a half or
two per cent., if so many, are counterfeit. The
spurious notes are easily detected, and are
promptly branded counterfeit with an iron
constantly kept heated for that purpose. Of
course the holders, and not the Treasury, bear
the less. From to . one hundred dollars of
such currency, of various denominations, is
destroyed every day. No•knowledge of coun
terfeit National Bank notes has come to the
bureau,nor ot ones or twos ofrnited States cur

Dalt, Wisdom, and Whisky among De
feated Demag4igues,
NEW roux, August 11
• You are, perhaps, aware that New York has
been all through the war, and is now, the
headquarters of the disaffectedelement North,
and the rebellious element South. Here in one
Or two of the hotels—one of them particularly
prominent as a meeting-place—most of the
plans of tbe Copperhead campaigns have been
concoctedcolleocteds most of the leriAers have found
and counselled with each other; and most Of
the sympathy evoked to be sent in words of
pleasantness to the struggling malcontents of
. the South. Just before the last Presidential
campaign, all the money and discussions elm
tred here, although Canada, Dayton, and Chi
cage, at afferent times enjoyed the question
able honor. Then, when the country was in
its throes, sympathizers, cunning enough,
but destitute entirely of the courage to evi
dence their sympathy by their acts, congre
gated here. Then there was hope among trai
tors, and plots and cabals to bring success to
a cause already referred to the arbitrament
of battle. Now, not only the Sympathizers are
here, but those for whom they sympathized.
The cause has been referred to battle's arbi
trament. The decision of battle, like the de
cision of law and justice, long ago given, has
been adverse. Sympathizers and defeated reb;
ens now hobnob together in "secret and silence
alone," comparing notes, gathering hope and
mustering courage from each other's utter
ances, to again " some of these days," attempt
the verification of a fallacy, the compassing of
au illlDOSSibinty.
lrliAT A " 911ADOW" IS, AND WHAT /T
There are three kinds of shadows—one fami
liar to every one who walks in the light, and.
every honest man does. Then there is the sha
dow—a substantial one, too—once to be found
on every Southern plantation, which rebels
said had obscured the peace and the pros
perity of the land. _And there is the third
" shadow," which policemen are called, when,
like avenging fate, they follow craftily and
steadily in the footsteps of the malefac
tor. Such a shadow I have met, have
seen him for two or - three days, known where
he went, Whom he - saav r what he had. said
and heard, and, if 1 could get the reader
to believe me, I have actually known what
he felt and thought. Ife has been to the
places where the gentry of whom I have
spoken most do congregate,. and he has ga
thered many filets, whielilie - has kindly placed
at my disposal for the benefit of your read
ers and every lover of Itioeountry.
WHAT. "/T” SA33,
Anybody who has ever passectup one of the
finest streets of this metropolisy.be it at morn
ing, at high noon, at evening, or far into the
night, cannot help but noticethe - eollection of
fine hotels that cluster in partienlar . spots,
remarkable at once for their appearance, their
comfort, their altitude both in build and
prices. On the steps of at least two of them
be will-see lank men, many.ofthen4 with dark
faces and dark hair, and dark- eyesiwho smoke
and lounge and lounge and smoke the live
long day. Among them circulated rotund
men, and round-faced men, and' men of all
forms, sizes and dresses—oily men who glide
around like snakes, gathering-ecaufort from
sly interchanges of subdued • murmurings of
treason. Enter Vie reception hail, and the
same elassea of rden lounge in the diOans, or
moodily read "Yankee" newspapers. They
appear to have nothing to- de; . and, in
deed, it has been remarked to me by the
shadow friend of mine, that they have much
the air of men reduced to poverty and now ex
isting on the bounty or the .regard of their
friends in the North. Their dress is none of
the best. Most of them appear as it.' they' were
wearing the suits that were in their-wardrobes
four years ago, or were doffed to don Confede
rate gray, There is a peculiar air about them
that enables one in any way experienced in
his observation of Southern men, to tell im
mediately whence they came. Conquered
though they be—malefactors, defeated at the
last court to which they appealed—they swag
ger as if they were victors, and,. among them-
selves, at least, are as proud of having.belonged
to the rebel or (as they call it,) tho."-Conlye
drate Army," as if it were indeed .ars honor,
and not a crime rendered doubly heinous by.
defeat.
A SINGLE EXAMPLE
To show you a single " Southern mowd," as
my "shadow" terms it, (only need totake his
own words as be described_ one , to me :
" Take," said he, "any ordinary crowd to base
your idea upon; group them as -you will on
the porch of a hotel, or dispose them, in a cir
cle in a reading-room, an ante-room, a ;bar
room, or anywhere else ; mix a Ibw young
men, in striped clothes and broa&brimmed
bats, the pattern which was affected by the
whole rebel army, officers and soldiera alike;
then put in a fats sturdy, old fellow in jean,
with a broad smile on his face and a leer
in his eye—a contrast quite to • the young
men of sallow face and long Ilia, whohave yet
the interest of the Confederacy at heart. And
then insert a gw-bearded man impusty black,
not exactly the centre of the gathering, or the
one listened to, witli the most. attention, but
the most noticeable to Northern t nyes, because
the most venerable—and you have what is
called a New York COnfederata crowd.' rut

_them, talkative,
condoling fellows, who are continually talking
of 'hope for the best,' and are arguing the best
things fror.*:' a contbination.of, a great Demo•

I call, and. what most other people call, a
complete -Confederate crowd." ,
Du yoll,never find such crowds in the bar
"MOMS 7" we asked,
" Oh, yea! very often," sal:the Shadow, who,
by had a particulear object in being
what hewas. "Of course you , find them in

" ,'sad where else do you: ice these crowds?''

they discuss the full:lo4nd what they will try

" Are these confaha,! as you call them, dia.

"Well; no," amavered the shadow

I have called emfabs* were not so much eon

am satisfied that where I have been I have

"'Most of them have, but they are not the

PHILADELPHIA, SATURDAY, AUGUST 12, 1865.
Idled, and at length discovered to us what he
knew. But of that in its logical order.
WHO THY. REBELS AIM
The " Shadow' , is reputed to be an intern
tent gentleman, and in his intercourse with
the prominent rebels, be has met here and
associated with during the past three or four
days, almost constantly, day and night, he has
had an opportune of not only agreeing with
all that was said, but of hearing'all that was
to be said. There are many prominent rebels
about here. Mrs. Davis and family, my friend
was informed by Colonel Stewart, of her has
baud's late staff, was stopping at the hotel in
strict privacy, however, and few even of the
sojourners at the hotel have been aware of it.
Then there is ex-Senator Pugh; of Ohio, who
has come to see some of his friends, and
General Marmaauke, of Southwestern rebel
fame, and General Granger and General Rey
nolds.. Frank Gardener and Beale, who con
jointly surrendered Port Hudson, are als here.
with Major General Fagan, who distinguish
ed (1) himself so much in the early part Of the
.war ( 9 01_ and 1 63) in Arkansas. Among' the
civilians who have been noticed at tile
hotel are many prominent New York politi
cians, including lawyers and business . men,
who court the rebels partly from sympa
thy and partly from interest—the others
entirely from sympathy now, but interest
in the far and uncertain future, Among
the New York ClYillans was one man who, on
Wednesday last, in an advanced state of ine
briety, kept-assuring the few about him that
he had been a consul once, but was now
"thoroughly and forever with the Confede
racy.ll Consul as lie was, and "loyal') to the
South, it did not prevent him from being col
lared by a stalwart and also inebriated brother,
who essayed to take the consul's life, because
the denounced him as a " d--d Yankee?'
Another was an OX-Sheriff of New Orleans,. who:
had been invited to - wave New Orleans as or
abOut the time that General Butler assumed
command of the captured city. There were
others, both
. military and civilians, but it will
suffice to say that they were all prominent
enough to warrant the assertion that what
they say and what they think is a fair index
of the thoughts and sayings of the radical
secession element, both Worth and South.
Now for •
They are not whipped ! "Oh, no! We are
not whipped," all chime—generals, civilians—
Northerners, SOUtherhers, all; This no-whip.
pad spirit is visible everywhere, If you even
venture to insinuate that slavery is dead; that
its death is a boon to the South; that Southern
aspirations for power have all ceased; their
short-lived flight forever shackled; all open
on you with a fierceness, which, to use our
friend's words, - made him doubt whether he
was a Texan or not, for he was a Texan once.
ANOTHER EXAMPLE.
Take a ease in point, which will give an idea
of their general conversation : A day or two
Nip our friend—our shadowy friend—met two
Confederate soldiers on Broadway, %Mile Walk•
ing in company with the-colonel of a Georgia
regiment. lie was introduced according to
his proper rank, and soon was on good terms
with the soldiers, who had served four years
in the Confederate service, and were captured
at last in the undoubtedly hard-fought battle at
Fort Fisher. They were intelligent enough in
their way, ordinary fellows, who had gone
into the War young, and from instinct and pre.
Judice combined, learned nothing while in the
army, and came out rebels yet, even if they
had spent a few months in Elmira, subsisting
On Government rations away Lom war's
dangers. They were glad as soldiers are, and
as soldiers of a defeated and disbanded army
Particularly are, to meet an °Meer in the old
ranks ; one who had stood with them against
the storm of "Yankee lead,' and struggled
against Titanic Yankee charges.
"Where have you been ?" asked our shar
dotty friend.
" We have just cum from- Elmira, sir," they
answered," We was captoored at Font Fisher,
(an elision of the r here, as in fort, and as al
most all Southerners do,) whar we guy the
Tankeesparticular
" I am very glad to see ,polls" Said Shadow,
"It was a battle well fought and well won."
"Well fought on only one side, captain," said
one of the men (a sergeant)- respectfully,
" they drove us np into one corner of the fort,
and then they plimped into us ; them Con
necticut fellows did with their la.sliooters, and
then we lryked out of the travusses and went
eout towards Battery Buchanan. But we had
to give into theyankee sons moaned the
sergeant, regretfully.
And our friend moaned, too.
"Hut, do you knew," said the other solqicr,
a corporal, both tnen•of the list south Varolina,
"do you know," addressing our friend by his
military title, " that: the hull thing isn't over
yet. You're young enough,-;'and we're
young enough yet, too, to try this thing over
again; and, the next time,"' he exclaimed,
winking. Oign . #leantly,-"'we won't be so un
lucky as we've been thie,er-a,..., smsrhilw: , - -
“Ilut, look .byer,” said the sergeant, "you
know, Sam, that half the in our com
pany didn't stay through the hull war. They
desarted, and hyked oft. See yere, ---,you
know that If the COnfeyeduratea - had stuck
together, thar wouldn't have been this yer tale
to tell."
" That's so," was the ready response.
In company with the two Confeds, the four
bent their way to what is called politely the
refreshment room of a prominent hotel, used
as a Democratic headquarters - fOr years. 'Here
the toast proposed Dy trio Confederates them.
selyes was:
"Better luck next time ! it be soon ;
we're all young enough yet !"
A dashing or glasses, a gurglin". .zof cobblers,
and energetic approving nods, ' showed how
well the toast was appreciated...
"Is 'that the opinion of all the Confeda.
rates?" was the question.
" Down whar I was we knew little and cared
less. We'd have liked to be victorious, bat
when we couldn't, we couldn't," wasthe sage
remark, expressed in language suitable to the
comprehension of the listeners;
"It was the opinion among •nearly all the
men in our regiment, wasn't itr asked the
sergeant, addressing the corporal, /
"Do yon know anything about 0.4, opinion
of other regiments in your army?. (Lee's army.)
What was the feeling among the 'tozescripts,
especially?" asked the Shadow. •
" Wall, we can't speak for that," replied the
corporal, Courteously, following in a-seconda,
ry way the lead of the corporal; e but if we
know anything, we know that themtcrhats lost
brothers and fathers like I hey, and like the
sergeant has, and them whets lostrnoney and
property, ain't going to give in for good if
they can help it."
All !" said this Shadow, in an-expressive
monosyllable..
" What made your fellows desert down
there at Petersburg, hie 3" said .Oustrtend, the
consul, to whom we have already referred.
Ile was in an.advaticed stage of Antoxieation,
and his tongue was as thick as.hig :eyes' were
bright. " You see here-hic-I was-hia-a
consul once-th-hic--at's t so, but• even if I
was, if I had stuck by the Confederacy, Pd
hie-stuck on." , • •
" Pshaw; you—von," fiercely. ej acilictod port•
ly. man in a shooting jacket, . whose name
might have been Dobson, and might have not ;
" he shrieked, a third time, lib a tone of
withering contempt.
What—hie—do—you—mean, , ...said the con
sul sententiously and elahoratoly,, u you- es
—you! You—Yankee !t" -
There was a rush—a - struggle—a capsizing
of chairs, and a final Capsizingf of the be],
ligerents,With dislocatedneck r ties,and glaring
countenances.
The quarrel attracted. .but little attention,
for among the large gathering everybody was
interested in the lificuliar QUestion of the
South, and Southern.. everybodies were vis-a-vis
with Southern nobadips—good.for nothing ex
ceot for the miseliWthey are trying to corn.:
pass.
Quiet was decle2ed.llllo. peace. restored.
• Another inthibation, in the .usual fancy style
of Southern dr:oks, followed:this, with the
same toast.
The language of. the Cerafederate soldiers,
their gray Confederate-jackets set off with
Union blue pantaloons, obtained in Prison, at.
tracted the notice. of ,•some portly and some
lank men, wisa,stood in, noisy talk, along the
reach of the glittering bar,
" Confederates,. are youir they asked, with
genuine Sontraprnnceent.
" , Tune," answered both simultaneously.
" Glad to . meet, y.ou ' !! opened the live, who
provrad afterwards rarfbe officers in the Con,
federate se vice, mom generals down. "Glad
to meet you," therexelaimed again, with the
embellislimentefuneath.
`llcow long lekve. you been yens" what,o
yer ncone.si!"! - Ila this yer captain?" ese.,
- came nut in a. continuous volley.
The-questionswere answered satisfaebrily.
Thenn.dcsuliory conversation followed, until
the Confederate soldiers made preparation for
acintaure, "f4t.N, 5, said they, " those Xankees
down yer promised us our transportation at
fear o'clock," (it was now three). " Uwe. don't
get yey, they'llbluff us." • ,
" No, no ; don't go yet," said a nortly Im/b.
vidual, with a bald head, a gold-I:faded cane,
'a faeabebearded, Bad decidedly l'forthera. in
its cast. lits dress and genera manner be
tokened his position in good New York soot&
ty. "Don't go yet, boys. Give me yourhands.
Brave boys you've been! Take a drink, and
then Pll talk to you on businuss."
Of course, the drink . was not rothaed, and
then the business came. Ii was patfaus
"Do your boys want anything Vt
" Well, yes ; they wanted clothes, aradmoney,
and whisky, and a greai many things that the
Yankees wouldn't give,"
All these were premised, and the soldiers
went away with the assurance that they and
their comrades would get what was promised.
So much for t*e talk of the privates, and
they were not the only ones who spoke the
same way whom the Shadow met.
WHET THE OFFICERS BAIL
Is Italia I Jim; how do you dot" said a tan
man, 'with a V@ l 4 Wet itti 110 Eudlcd WV? filict
the back taverns peculiar in New York, de
posited a huge portmanteau, and cordially
saluted the bartender.
Male 1 why Pm glad to see you 1"
was the equally cordial response.
This back tavern lay between two hotels,
which divide the honor of entertaining ex
rebel guests,
"Jim, I've been four years at work, and bet
ter work I never did, by said Maio,
proudly.
The Shadow was introduced,lind in a long
conversation, "Maio" boasted of the prowess
,Of Lee's army, and the likelihood there was,
if fortune and justice (F) favored, of that work
being done over again. Bennington's brigade
was what the "I.htje" belonged to, and "it was
in Fields' division, and it was the best brigade
and the best division that any good man and
good Confederate ever could want to belong
in—that was so."
He was going to Georgia, and he belonged
thar," and he was going to stay " thar" until
he was wanted again- All this time he was
busily enghged arranging it all. And - when he
had finished he called all in the room, ( who
were only the Shadow, and a pale, sallow,
turtle-backed Arkansas man,) to have a drink.
The drink taken,he again announced his
allegiance to the onfederacy, and left for the
State which Sherman overrun, just because it
was a part of that Confederacy.
140 Mr. Editor, this officer's Opinion about
his being " whipped," was the opinion of every
officer he met ; and we can show to you that
many were of influence, and of high degree.
"They were not whipped"—only subduedfor a
time—ready to springup again as soon as their
friends in the North regained poWer and again
Controlled the important working branches of
the GoVernment. And how were these friends
to gain the important working branches?
There is
WO ANOW'ZII YET
Just for that very purpose is all the Caucus
ing now going on in this" metropolitan" city.
Just for that very purpose do ex-Senators, and
Consuls,and high and mighty men generally,
in the emocratic ranks, hob-nob and drink,
and' lay up big bills, to hotel-keepers here,
who " are noted for their devotion to Southern
principles."' And now,
HOW DO THEY 00 ADOPT ITI
Just as we have been telling. From all parts
of the South are coming prominent people, who
journey hithet to lay heads together, compare
notes, and decide on a course of action'. Now,
their course of action has boell pretty well
chalked out, but of course will be modified by
ciremustances.,
There is. a class who are willing to sup
port negro suffrage for policy's 'sake. They
support it because, as they argue, (and
by they is meant Northern prominents as
as well as Southeru,) nothing will sooner dis
gust the voting population of the North than
tacit equality with negroes, inconsiderable
and contemptible in character North, and
brutish and miserable South. Besides, they
continue, there is every - likelihood of blank
men getting into Congress—then a free tight
in the "Government circles; , then, "Hurrah
for the Confederacy:" Shadow saw many of
this class, among others.an old, white-headed
man, of facile tongue and fossil ideas.
Another class intend opposing negro suf
frage, hoping that it will find enough support
among the white 'prejudice in the North to
" divide the dominant party," and give them
an opportunity of riding into power.
These two *Classes exist jUst now, but may
merge as has been stated, uniting on one or
the other of the planks.
But these two planks have not yet been put
in the platform, because the political carpen
ters have not yet decided on their relative
strength.
ABPIITYLATION
Their last plank is " - repudiation."
" Do you suppose" said the Northern-South.
ern et, and the Southerners proper. to Shadow,
"Do you suppose that if we once get power in
Congress, we are going to vote for the payment
of money used in conquering us!"
"Of course not," says everybody, and every
body seems totake for granted that the debt
never will be paid, because if the " Seouth"
failed in the dell, it hag "hrainS" enough to
overmatch the royal North .in the council
halls.
OPINIOF;S OF LA.wrrag
You came from the South, I suppose," said
a fresh-looking man, with fair hair, to a gen

golden sunlight filtered in through an oriel
windoxif, revealing tiiousands of air -motes, in
constant inovementy yet never clashing—ap
pearing liklkhousands of little planets.
The fair-haired marg , had sidled up from a
knot of politicians atrthe farther end of the
hall in which the lennge was placed, and
appeared anxious to talk with the gentleman
he supposed was from the South.
"You are from the south, I suppose I" with a

Soldiers in Need of Employment.
DEMONSTRATION IN NEW YORK YBSTRIMAY
'The New York Post of yesterday, says;
A demonstration of Soldiers, sailors, and
other persons was made to-day under the an
spices of the "Metropolitan Employment
Agency," °Thee, No. US Canal street. A. pro
cession, which was intended to march to the
City Mail, to Wall street, and through various
streets in the city, formed at that °Mee this
forenom.under the direction of Colonel Her•
man and others.
The Metropolitan Agency, which was estab
lished to get employment for soldiers and sai
lors, is under the ostensible management of a
committee. The names of the members of
this committee, printed on the posters, are. C.
Godfrey Gunther, Mayor j Mat'WV' T. Brennan,
Comptroller Charles G. Cornell, Street Com
missioner, and ether city officials.
THE PLAN OF THE PROCESSION.
The programme of the procession was made
at the agency, and was set forth in two set of
resolutions, - which were read to meetings of
the eo)diet% at the agency office and approved
by them. The movement, the resolutions
stated and repeated, was entirely peaceful in
its aims, and the soldiers were seeking only
to direct the attention of the public towards
them, so that they might obtain employment,
to which their services in behalf of their court.
try ought to entitle them. The soleters hear
tily applauded the name of General Hooker,
voionwo THE pßoczeStox—ntE BANNERS
The procession was to move promptly at
nine o'clock this morning, from No. 13S Canal
street, and at that hour between two and three
hundred men were assembled in the street,
near the office. Shortly after nine o'clock men
were sent after some banners. Six of the ban
ners were soon on the ground. They bore the
following inscriptions
"We are now soldier citizens, with our head
quarters at the Metropolitan Employment
Agency, En. 185 Canal street.
"We represent thousands of brave dis
charged soldiers and sailors now asking for
work and bread."
"Our latest employers and referent:lea are
Grant, Sherman, Sheridan, Meade, Hooker,
Hancock, and others."
"Our last occupation was the destruction of
the rebellion and the re-establishment of the
Union with the modern improvements.."
"Give us employment to support our fami
lies.,
“ Wanted—A definition of the republican
form of Government. Answer—National
gratitude towards those who have save; the
Republic.”
When the soldiers saw these banners they
expressed their admiration of them.
At ten o'clock the crowd bad increased to
five hundred persons, and the SOldiers who
were to carry the banners and the flags had
taken their places in the street.
ARRIVAL OF TEIE BAND• , --T RIC FROCKS B lON MOVING
At half-past twelve o'clock the band of the
4th Regular regiment arrived in Canal r street.
The drums beat, the banners reappeared, and
the soldiers who were in the vicinity came
from various places, and formed in procession.
They numbered two or three hundred.
Accessions were made to the number of per•
sons in the ranks on the way, and when the
Procession arrived at the Park it numbered
not far from three hundred and fifty
The largest number of the persons in line
were, undoubtedly, returned soldiers or sail
ors but were were many old men awl some
very mall boss.
The New York Bank Defalcation.
NEARLY THREE HUNDRED THOUSAND DOLLARS
PURLOINED FROM THE BANN-ONE OF THE
GUILTY PARTIES COMMITS SUICIDE.
The New Uric Express of last evening says
About half-past one o'clock on Thursday
afternoon, Special Detective John'll. McCarty,
of the Twenty-ninth precinct, proceeded to
the office'of Smith, Martin_, Co., No 3 Wan
street, and arrested John H. Earle, on a charge
of being concerned in the Plicenix Batik defal
cation. Earle made no denial of his compli
city, hut at 01100' proceeded with the officer
to the bank. fiere, in presence of John Me-
Keone, Esq., and the bank officers, he confess
ed to having received $lOO,OOO from - Jenkins.
The first money he received was $50,000, which
he supposed to be the property of Jenkins.
When he received the second *50,000, he knew
it had been purloined from the bank. On being
interrogated as to what had become of the
money, Earle said it bad all been invested and
sunk in stocks. Earle was then taken and
locked up in the Twenty-ninth-precinct sta
tion-house.
- - - -
Acting upon information received from
Earle, Officer DicCarty proceeded, at haMpast
ten o'clock last night, to No. 159 Bleecker and
arrested a stylish-looking woman, callinther
self Mrs. Brown, but whose real name is• enc.
vieve Brower. She was Jenkins' mistress, and
becoming conscious of his position and defal
cations, she, it is alleged, worked upon Jen
kins, fears till she blackmailed him of nearly
$15,000, besides a house full ofuostly furniture.
About an hour after, the same officer arrested
Charles Brown, said to be the kept man of Mrs.
Brown, and who, as was charged by Earle,
helped herin her blackmail operations: Pre
vious to these arrests, Earle had been. con
veyed to the station-house, searched, and
•everything taken from him. About one o'clock
Brown was put in a cell by McCarty, who at
the same time saw Earle and asked him.how
he> felt. Earle said pretty well, and thought
he wouldgo to sleep. The officer then Did him ,
good night, Earle'' last good night on earth.
About half-past seven' o'elock, McCarty pro.
seeded to' the station-house for the purpose of
fetching his prisoners to the Jefferson Market
Police Court. He sent the . doorman down to •
fetch them up. ln a short time he returned,
saying thathe could not rouse Earle. McCarty
rushed downstairs, and, placing his hand on
Barlo'F heart, found. that it had Ceased , to
throb, and his pulse Was motionless. On rais
gip the prisoner, the blood gushed from a
Ikrge orifice in the neck. On the floor of the

quar
ters of an inch; and of the kind known as a
lady's pocket-knife. This instrument, it is
supposed; Was concealed on the inside of the
lower lip, and Earle rushed to meet his Maker
about four o'clock, as the doorman saw him
awake about three. The deceased was deter
mined on his death; he first cut a hole near
thejugular vein, and pushing the knife in,
worked round and round till he made a hole
in his neck about the size of a quarter of a
dollar. As soon aS death was ascertained, the
body was removed to an upper floor, and the
coroner notified, and thus ends one phase, and
probably the most tragical, in this bank case.
The Pod says:
The clerks remained at the bank until a late
hour last night, examining the amounts of
that institution, but no further errors were
discovered.
The persons employed in the hank say that
Jenkins was a warm-hearted, generous Man,
who was always at his desk, and unusually
attentive to his duties. He was the first man
at the bank in the morning, and the last to
leave at night. One of the most singular facts
connected with his crime, is that he was very
economical, dressing plainly, and wearing no
jewelry, He was never known to lead ft AMA
life, or dissipate in any manner.
The cashier of the Phenix Bank believes to.
day that the defalcation will amount to
a 9.75,000. The bank has a surplus fund of
V 270,000, besides the earnings of the past six
months, which, apart from the July dividends,
are considerable.
